Order of maps

Firstly, the maps are sorted into the part of the Plan that they relate to (as in Volume 1), that is:

Part II Land

Part III Coastal Marine Area

Part IV Rivers and Lakes [no current maps]

Part V Water

Part VI Discharges

Secondly, the maps are sorted into the following groups within each Part:

1A. Area and Zone Maps (in Part II)

1B. Area Maps (in Parts III and VI)

2. Special Maps (in Parts II, III, V and VI)

There are subsections within these two groups, as set out below.

Area and Zone Maps (in Part II)

There are two maps for each geographic part of the District:

The “Area Map”, which is left-facing in the printed copy. This displays the various areas such as Slope Instability Risk Area and also point features, such as protected treesand heritage buildings.

The “Zone Map”, which is right-facing in the printed copy. This displays the zoning for each property. In addition, legal roads are zoned. Roads are zoned according to the land immediately adjoining. The zoning is taken to the official centreline of the road. Note that this is not always the midpoint of the road.

Different scales

The Area/Zone maps are a series of maps at different scales.

The first section of the Area/Zone maps is a series covering the whole of the District. Refer to the map index. These maps are generally at a scale of 1:50,000, but some maps are at 1:100,000.

The map index and the smaller scale maps both refer to maps at a larger scale. These are:

1:25,000 Series

Covers the three main urban centres in the District and their surrounding areas. Covers those parts of the District where there is more intensive settlement.

1:10,000 Series

Covers all of the settlements in the District other than the three main towns.

1:5,000 Series

Covers the Takaka, Motueka and Richmond urban areas.

1:1,000 to 1:10,000 – Designations only

Some designations, which are not clearly displayed on the Area maps in the regular series above, are shown here.

Please refer to Part II, Appendix 1 of the Plan text for further details.

Area Maps (in Parts III and VI)

These cover the following:

Part III: Mooring Area

Part VI: Aquifer Protection Area

Special Domestic Wastewater Disposal Area

Wastewater Management Area

Special Maps

These maps show the extent of additional rules which are notshown on the Area/Zone maps (see item 3 above).

Help: notes on zone, area and special maps

Zone Maps

On the Zone maps (in Part II), note the following:

The zone the property is in. Only one zone applies to any piece of land. There are some rules that deal with properties close to the boundaries between zones, so it is useful at this stage to note from the maps if the property is near a zone boundary.

Area Maps

On the Area maps (in Parts II, III and VI), note the following:

(a) Any areas that apply to the property. A property may be inmore than one area; for example, all properties in St Arnaud are in a Landscape Priority Area and in Land Disturbance Area 1.

(b) Any symbols on the property, for example heritage buildings or designations. Note the numbers attached tothe symbols, where applicable.

NOTE: To check for the presence of any cultural heritage site on the property, refer to the Cross- Reference to Cultural Heritage Sites (at the beginning of Part II) which will refer you to the relevant Cultural Heritage Sites map(s) at the end of Part II.

Special Maps

On the Special maps, note any of the following features, if applicable:

In Part II: Road hierarchy, landscape units in the coastal Tasman area, and cultural heritage sites

In Part III: Aquaculture Management Areas, natural ecosystem values, and river mouth and coastal marine area boundaries

Specific notes on display issues

Protected Trees

The location of protected trees is identified by the letter 'T and the tree number. Where possible, the tree number is located on the property where the tree is located. In some cases due to the small scale of the map, the tree number is not directly on the property, but is as close as possible.
